When she isn't teaching she can usually be found with her horses, because besides being a yoga teacher she also rides rodeo. She competes on a semi-professional level in steer roping and barrel riding. Casie lives and works on a real cattle ranch here on Maui. |
Casie Newhouse began studying Ashtanga Yoga at the House of Yoga and Zen with Nancy
Gilgoff in 1995, and has been assisting at the school for the past five years.
Casie has also studied with Nicky Doane and Eddie Monestini. When Nancy is away
touring, Casie takes charge of the daily classes, something she enjoys, as
she likes working with students in a classroom setting and on an individual basis. |
